A simple and luscious no-churn salted caramel ice cream recipe that requires no ice cream maker and comes together in under 15 minutes. Perfect for last-minute indulgence with a creamy, sweet-and-salty flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream
  • 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • ½ cup (120 ml) salted caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • Pinch or two of flaky sea salt (about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: chocolate chips or chopped nuts
  • Optional (vegan): coconut cream instead of heavy cream
  • Optional (vegan): dairy-free sweetened condensed milk substitute

Instructions

  1. Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for about 10 minutes to help whip the cream faster and fluffier.
  2. Pour the 2 cups of cold heavy cream into the chilled bowl and whip with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the airiness.
  5. Fold in ½ cup of salted caramel sauce. For a marbled effect, fold a few times; for fully mixed flavor, fold until evenly distributed.
  6. Sprinkle 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of flaky sea salt over the mixture and fold gently one last time.
  7. Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container, smooth the top with a spatula, and cover tightly with a lid or plastic wrap.
  8. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm. Let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping for easier serving.
  9. Optional: fold in chocolate chips or chopped nuts before freezing.

Notes

Chill your mixing bowl and beaters before whipping cream for best results. Fold whipped cream gently to preserve airiness. If caramel sauce is thick, warm slightly before folding. Store ice cream tightly covered for up to 2 weeks. Let ice cream soften 5-10 minutes before serving for easy scooping.
